Subject: [PATCH][RESEND] VMX: Properly return error to userspace on vmentry failure
Date: Mon, 31 May 2010 22:40:54 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1275334854-6134-1-git-send-email-m.gamal005@gmail.com> (raw)
The vmexit handler returns KVM_EXIT_UNKNOWN since there is no handler
for vmentry failures. This intercepts vmentry failures and returns
KVM_FAIL_ENTRY to userspace instead.
